Exploration on the thoughts of the novels by Lu-yin
No full text碩士五四女作家群的先鋒──廬隱(1899~1934)，在新舊變遷的過渡年代吸收紛複的氣息後，托出社會潛隱的問題，她認為「女性覺醒」是作為「個人發現」的重要向度，同時包含為「女」與為「人」的雙重自覺。因此，身為女性作家，廬隱的小說主題多半蘊涵當下社會中女性婚戀問題及人生歸程的探求，內容明顯地留下她的思想印跡。然而，目前關於廬隱小說的研究視角有不甚公允及全面的情況，因此本論有以下三大新方向：
首先，廬隱筆下的女性形象及其情感可謂真切細膩，具有濃厚的自傳性質，時代標籤也極為鮮明，是以唯有深入瞭解其不同於流俗的思想，對其思想進行探源，才能充分掌握作者與作品對時代的價值。
其次，筆者注意到目前關於廬隱小說的研究正面臨失衡的情況，研究或批評導向以「女性人物形象」、「女性意識」為主，而文本中男性的存在意義則受到刻意地忽略或模糊化。過去評論普遍認為女性創作中男性人物形象因為代表性不如女性人物，而研究價值低微，也認為男性人物形象在作品中受到邊緣化，甚至文本中的男性人物只是兩性對列下的反襯而已。然而，從文本中我們可以看到廬隱並未偏廢營造男性形象這一區塊，甚至不乏以男主人公為主述者的易性創作，並藉由不同類型的男性形象來凸顯女性在時代變遷中的真實處境。因此，筆者認為過去的一元論述只能看出個別性別的絕對位置，若將其同置一個時代語境才能還原相對位置，並進行性別意識的反思，對當代文化的精神建構將更為有利。
最後，隨著五四運動低潮的來臨，廬隱的思想也陷入了矛盾與退怯中，這種迷茫徘徊伴隨著她文學作品的終結。這些作品中暗示了父權社會中充斥虛假的真實，而有著覺醒姿態的女性如何在這種混沌的狀態中步履蹣跚地行走？對女性於身心靈的層層束縛是多麼難以解開？甚至連女性覺醒的先鋒者廬隱本身也不經意陷入父權再製的陷阱，這些過往研究中所疏略的內容皆是本論聚焦之處。The vanguard of the May Fourth female writers—Lu-yin (1899~1934), who discovered the hidden problems in Chinese society during and after the period of transition. Lu-yin thought that is the essence of "personal awakening" comes from "female awakening". In other words, she pointed out emphatically that a woman is not only a woman but a person. Therefore, as a female writer, most of Lu-yin’s novels contain those two topics: the awakening of female consciousness in the gender relations and marriage problems. To us the thoughts of Lu-yin’s novels are still enlightening as before. However, many researches on Lu-yin’s novels are not fair and all-round. Consequently, this research of new points includes following three main directions:
First, female images and emotions of Lu-yin’s novels are pretty realistic and touching. In the meantime, that also reflected the true life of this author. We have to go deep into her novels to differ from prevailing opinions and carry on exploring sources to our thoughts. So we could understand the value of Lu-yin and her novels through time.
Secondly, I observed that many researches on the novels by Lu-yin are biased or narrow-minded. Most critics gave importance to "female images" or "female consciousness" but ignored the male is in existence. Generally speaking, the male images in the female writers’ works were not worthy to analyze because they were dull. However, from the text we can see Lu-yin had never been to discard to construct the male images, and by the different types of male we can recognize the true circumstances at that time. Consequently, I think the monism to research the gender relations is not enough. If the research cover two sides between males and females, it will be beneficial to the contemporary cultural construction.
Lastly, Lu-yin was sinking into antinomy and fear after the end of the May Fourth movement. Confusion is filled with her literature works. She implied the deceitful reality in the unfair society and exposed the new female problems in these works. Even as a "new woman", we couldn’t omit to Lu-yin also paid no attention to fall into the trap of patriarchy. Above-mentioned points are this essay’s focuses.第一章 緒論………………………………………………1

Engineering the interface of cytochrome b5 and myoglobin for in vitro and in vivo applications
No full textHeme-copper oxidases (HCOs) are large membrane proteins found in both bacteria and in eukaryotes. They catalyze about 90% of oxygen reduction in the atmosphere. They utilize a heme-copper center, which is comprised of a heme and a copper ion coordinated with three histidines, to catalyze the four-electron reduction of oxygen to water. Unfortunately, native enzymes are difficult to study because they are difficult to purify, and the presence of multiple metal cofactors make it difficult to characterize. Therefore, there is a need for small protein models that are able to mimic the native systems.
Our lab was able to incorporate the heme-copper center found in HCOs in a smaller scaffold, Myoglobin, and the resulting mutant was named CuBMb. When our protein model was paired with its physiological electron transfer partner, cytochrome b5, fast electron transfer and O2 consumption was achieved, making our protein model system to have a catalytic rate similar to that of native HCOs.
A key to the above success was engineering the electrostatic interactions between CuBMb and cytochrome b5. As a result, the system works well only when the ionic strength of the buffer is <5 mM, which is outside the common physiological ionic strength. As a result, applications for this system are limited. To overcome this limitation, cytochrome b5 was engineered such that the interaction with myoglobin became hydrophobic, which allowed for a broader application scope. The mutants were designed using Rosetta, and their oxidase activity was characterized. However, after two rounds of Rosetta, the designed mutants had lower oxidase activity compared to the native at any ionic strength.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2020-05-01The student, Tracy Chan, accepted the attached license on 2018-04-20 at 16:16.The student, Tracy Chan, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-04-20 at 16:23.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-04-23 at 09:51.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #12409 on 2018-08-31 at 17:30:14Made available in DSpace on 2018-09-04T20:47:28Z (GMT).

Relationship between job satisfaction and work performance : a case study of Sarikei Hospital, Sarawak
No full textPurpose The main purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between job satisfaction and work performance among 20 1 support group personnel in Sarikei Hospital, sarawa.,0 Methodology - Questionnaires consisted of three parts were distributed to all the support group of staff in Sarikei Hospital. The first part of the questionnaire is analyzing the demographic of respondents and the gender of their supervisors. The next two parts are attached with 36 and 20 questions respectively reflected each individual dimensions of job satisfaction and work performance. The data was analyzed by the SPSS Version 17.0 computer software. Findings - It was found that work and communication are significantly related to client
satisfaction with ~ = .39 with p < 0.0 I and .17 with p < .05 respectively. As for employee satisfaction, only work is significantly related to it with ~ = .62 with p < 0.0 I. However, benefits and communication are found to be significantly related to productivity with ~ =
.18 with p < 0.05 and .18 with p < 0.05 respectively. It was found that supervision and work are significantly related to service quality with .~ = .18 with p < 0.05 and .27 with p <
0.01 respectively. Research limitations/practical implications - In this study, employees' participation was
voluntary and was conducted to the support group I only. These factors limit the possibility of generalizing from the study findings. This study may serve as a foundation for future studies, in different hospitals, on a larger
scales. The results of such studies can be very helpful for developing a new model of job iii satisfaction and work performance that can be implemented easily and successfully in a cross cultural context in the public services in Malaysia
On the movements of Shan peoples as is recorded in the Yüan-chan-chen-mien-lu, record of the Mongol expedition to Burman : An instance of Shans migration toward the South
No full textThe Mongol expedition to Burma at the thirteen century has brought a great change to the later Burmese dynasties. In consequence of the Mongol invasion, the Pagan dynasty of Burma declined, and the Shan families, subordinated to the Pagan Empire until that time, rose to their power, and at last had usurped the throne of the Pagan Emperor. Such Shans families’ invasion of Burma was evidently related to the Shan peoples which migrated toward the South from Yün-nan district. Therefore, the author has tried to treat such a problem as a chain in his own study about the Shan peoples in Yün-nan. (The Wu-man and Pal-man peoples in Yün-nan, part. 1-2. The Japanese Journal of Ethnology, vol. 17, no. 1, 41) We know that Professor E. Huber had already treated the same problem under the article of “La fin de la dynastie de Pagan. B. E. F. E. O. IX. 1909”. But there are many interesting questions left, and now the author only hopes to add some new questions to his predecessor’s excellent result. As a principal sources for this study, there are the Yüan-chan-chêng-mien-lu, 元朝征緬錄 Yüan-shih-mien-ch’uan 元史緬傳 and Yüan-shih-lei-pien 元史類編 on the Chinese side, and the Hmannan Yazawen, chronicle of Burmese dynasties, on the Burmese side. The author has tried to text criticize these sources and correct the wrong descriptions in each source. And the author has been especially interested in the relations between the three Shans brothers who attempted to usurp, and the Burmese Royal family. In consequence, author has cleared up the problems with regard to the movement of Shans usurpers who spread their power into the court of Burma by marriage with Burmese Royal family, as the table indicating follows.journal articl

No full textPh.D.In asset pricing theory, uncertainty is considered one of the most important factors. In related literature, analysis on uncertainty is typically broken into two parts: aspects concerning risk and those concerning ambiguity. In this thesis, we explore the existence of ambiguity, attempt to measure it quantitatively, and finally, try to determine the mechanism by which ambiguity influences market behavior.In the first study, we leverage the concept of the Hellinger distance to propose a theoretical method that measures the ambiguity levels of asset prices –this meets nearly all the desirable criteria for it to act as a satisfactory measure of ambiguity levels. In the second study, we empirically test whether ambiguity levels are priced in asset prices through the measure we proposed and calibrate the ambiguity premium in the US market. Finally, in the third study, we propose an algorithmic method combining both the HMM (Hidden Markov Model) and the SA-VAE (Self-attention Variational Auto-encoder, a deep learning algorithm) to capture and potentially predict market regime changes.在资本资产定价理论中，不确定性是一个很重要的影响因素。在金融理论中，不确定性被分为两个部分：风险和模糊性。在我的论文中，我们想要探索模糊性理论，量化地测量出模糊性的程度，发现模糊性回怎样影响金融市场的行为。在第一个研究中，我们利用了Hellinger 距离，提出了一个理论的方法去描述资本资产的模糊性，很好地满足了模糊性测度的性质；第二个研究，我们实证检验了我们提出的模糊性因子在金融市场中个股层面的应用表现，发现了模糊性溢价；第三个研究，我们提出了一个机器学习框架，结合了HMM，VAE 和KS 检验，检测了金融市场环境切换点。Lu, Tao.Thesis Ph.D. Chinese University of Hong Kong 2020.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 71-76).Abstracts also in Chinese.Title from PDF title page (viewed on March 22, 2022).Lu, Tao
[[alternative]]Biomechanical analysis of badminton forehand and backhand smash strokes in collegiate players.
No full text[[abstract]]The purpose of this study was to compare the kinematics variables of badminton forehand and backhand smash strokes. Two Redlake high-speed digital cameras (250Hz) were used to record the kinematics data of 8 collegiate badminton players when they were performing the forehand and the backhand grip smashes. A Kwon3D 3.1 motion analyzer was used to digitize the image and analyze the data. A t-test was used to test the selected variables at .05 significant levels. The results showed that the forehand smash was significant greater than the backhand smash in the initial shuttle velocity, the initial shuttle angle and the contact height. During the contact, there were significant difference between forehand and backhand smash strokes on the right elbow angle, left elbow angle, right shoulder angle, left shoulder angle, right hip angle, left hip angle, left ankle angle, and the distance between the contact and the center of gravity(COG). During the three phases of this study, there were significant difference between forehand and backhand smash strokes on the displacement in the frontal axis of the COG, and the angular velocity of the shoulder axis in the horizontal plane. During the lowest of the COG to the lowest position of the racket and the lowest position of the racket to the contact, there were significant difference between forehand and backhand smash strokes on the displacement in the longitudinal axis of the COG, and the angular velocity of the hip axis in the horizontal plane. As the result of this study, the displacement in the frontal axis of the COG is greater than forehand, but the angular velocity of the shoulder axis and the hip axis is less than forehand smash.
